HBM IO Architecture, Principal Engineer

Responsibilities

• Define and own HBM IO and data path architecture across multiple product generations from pathfinding through tape‑out
• Architect and analyze TSV‑based HBM link schemes including topology, signaling strategy, and parasitic co‑design
• Define and drive HBM PHY IO training features to ensure robust PVT margin across product generations
• Architect high‑speed IO circuits for the HBM interface die targeting best‑in‑class bandwidth and power efficiency
• Establish IO and TSV design standards and drive alignment across design, product, package, and process teams

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
• 7+ years of hands‑on experience in memory or high‑speed IO design with proven silicon success
• Deep expertise in analog and mixed‑signal CMOS circuit design and simulation
• Strong experience with high‑speed IO architectures such as Rx/Tx, PLL, DLL, DCC, phase interpolators, or equalizers
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence technical direction across teams

• Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field
• 10+ years of experience in HBM, DRAM, or advanced memory interface design
• Patents, publications, or trade secrets in high‑speed IO, TSV interfaces, or IO training
• Experience with HBM, LPDDR, UCIe, or other JEDEC memory standards
• Demonstrated technical leadership across multi‑disciplinary, multi‑generation programs

As a Principal Engineer in HBM IO Design Architecture, you will be the technical authority for HBM IO circuits and PHY architecture. You will lead multi‑generation IO initiatives spanning TSV link definition, PHY circuit architecture, IO training features, and silicon validation. This role is critical to maintaining Micron’s leadership in HBM speed, power efficiency, and quality, and offers the opportunity to shape long‑term architectural direction across the organization.
